The Finding Neverland show was amazing! The cast gave a wonderful performance! The Popejoy Hall employees are very helpful. Theres a snack bar that sells water, coffee, cookies . Parking is pretty accessible.

Bought mezzanine tickets and theyre still great seats! Great theater!

The year is 2019, so isnt it about time for you to have all of your skinny, no-leg-room seats replaced? Even the Guild Cinema years ago replaced their seats and now have comfortable seats with plenty of leg room. If you want to pay upwards of $65 to sit for over an hour with no place to put your feet or knees if you are over four feet tall, then go to this venue.

Very nice theater. Ive seen shows here on several occasions with seat all over the auditorium and every seat has been enjoyable. There are yummy snacks for sale at intermission. A lot of great shows come through Pope Joy and it is definitely worth your time. Great date idea.

I really appreciate the variety of shows they host. I wish they offered some more inexpensive tickets and not just for students. Would be appreciated to include everyone in the beauty of the arts, not just those that can afford $50 a ticket.

Went to see Yanni in concert and it was great

Great Holiday show! The cast was out standing!

Broadway quality theater in New Mexico. Shows usually arent first year runs but as professional as NYC without the high cost. Parking right near is safe & well lit. Needs new bathrooms.

Popejoy Hall is a wonderful treasure for Albuquerque. It has so many varied performances thst there is always something of interest to see. One problem they could easily solve--stop seating people who arrive late once the show has begun. It is rude to the performers and disrupts the viewing of many patrons. If they arrive late, then they stand at the back until intermission.

Great viewing no matter where you sit! They have great shows, we have season tickets and have never been disappointed! Great place on the UNM campus for the whole family.

It’s a fun place to come see concerts and performances. But I wish there were more spacing between seating rows. And that they can use some kind of sanitizing agent instead of just wiping the instruments off with a small peace of of tissue after kids put their lips on them. But other then those 2 things It’s a fun place to check out!

Just saw Beautiful... The carol king storyGreat music...production... Great entertainment. Nice venue.

This venue is terrific! Ive been 4 tired from the stage all the way up to the nose bleed section at the top of the balcony! Every seat feels intimate & as if the performance is being put on just for you. Love Popejoy and love the variety of shows available each year

Very comfortable. Seats are nice, air conditioning perfect temp. Would recommend!

5/8/18...My first time there. I was there to see Les Miserables. The foyer is lovely as is the lounge area. The concession was overstocked with sweets. The volunteer ushers were warm and friendly. However, the seating was tight and cramped in the auditorium. I was surprised this was considered a good venue for anything musical. The acoustics are horrible. It diminished the quality of the musical. They evidently didnt follow through with their no photo policy as I saw people taking video and/or photos. Having the intermittent light from phones was disruptive. I was very disappointed. Im glad that they are able to bring various types of performing arts to Albuquerque. However, considering what they charge for price per ticket, you would expect a better experience.

Amazing shows in a good venue. We just saw Beautiful, the Carole King story.

Its a great college theatre, I just wish they had a cloakroom

Shows are great but theater is not. Rows are narrow, knees almost touch another seat if you are tall. Incline is very small so you cant see well because of peoples heads. So the viewing experience is disappointing.

I love Popejoy! They bring in some of the biggest Broadway shows like Cats and The Lion King. Definitely worth a try!

Went here for my cousins graduation. Seats were comfortable. Unfortunately, the lighting on the stage was harsh so it was hard to see the faces of those on it. Even tougher to take pictures of my cousin getting her doctorate.

Great show , great seats for Bill Maher . First visit at Popejoy and looking forward to seeing more events there. Great venue ,although parking in garage sucked when it came to getting out in a timely manner

Sound of Music was excellent! Sound system seemed much better with this performance than in the past.....clearer, crisper, not garbled. Cast was delightful.

Kinky Boots was fun. Balcony seats with great view. Sound was good since actors were miked.

Awesome venue for concerts. Good view from any seat. Acoustics are great.

Wonderful Broadway auditorium with good sound in the mezzanine. The show could be watched without eye strain and the performers were spectacular. They booked a very good showing of Les Miserables. Our ushers were very sweet and kind old women who seemed to enjoy their service to their community.

Great theater! The sound system is much improved. Looking forward to attending more plays. Next time Ill pay for more leg room.

Nice venue for dance recitals, plays etc. Parking structure and outdoor parking lots available.

Really nice theater, sat in dd208 and was able to see the stage very well. Good sound. Seems to me like there arent many bad seats and if there were any Id say most likely orchestra, because the seats are all level and youd likely have a head in the way, not a problem on the mezzanine

Wonderful theater located on the University of New Mexico campus. World class acoustics with comfortable seats. Excellent seating and access for the disabled and a lounge for (crying) infant care with video monitors to view shows.

Clean, attractive, comfortable theater. The facilities are attractive and make for a satisfying experience. The venue isnt large, parking ($7) is convenient, and the staff is friendly and considerate. A minor drawback is the distance, or lack of it between the rows. Youre going to have to sit up because there isnt space to extend your legs and access to interior seats is like running an obstacle course. There are unobstructed views from every seat and the sound system allows for good hearing.Recommended.

This is a great venue - not a bad seat in the house. The university provides convenient and free parking from Lot G (University, just before Lomas). The only gripe I have is that the seats are a bit narrow. Im not a big guy, but I find myself rubbing shoulders a bit more than I would like.

I have not been here in years went for my grandaughters performance with the NM Philharmonic. The building looks very nice I love all the little updates that they have done especially the little Cafe inside it is reasonably priced and all the staff/ volunteers are very helpful and nice. The performance was wonderful!!

It would be wonderful if you could get a glass of wine before the show. Nice venue.

Pretty disappointed with this place. I was unable to enjoy the show do to overcrowding of the rows. You have more room on a Southwest Airline flight than you do at Popejoy. The person in front of you is literally in your lap, you can smell their perfume or cologne. Especially if youre pregnant or claustrophobic, its extremely uncomfortable. I dont think Ill be back for another show here just due to the lack of room.

We easily found parking and got to our seats with out a problem. The ticket takers seemed confused. They wanted to do a good job but had a hard time with the technology.

Love this place! Been coming here since I was little to see the nutcracker.

I have seen some good shows here but seems like their sound system needs some work. Recently, I went to see chorus line and throughout the whole show there was crackling. When I pay $150 for a ticket I expect nothing but the best.

I was able to enjoy the production of Wicked thanks to my sister & nephew! The music and costumes are very colorful and beautiful! I was disappointed with the sound, at times i couldnt hear all that was said sitting in the very back row.

The New Mexico Philharmonic just rocked the music of Queen! My ten year old son loved the show. What a great venue, Im never disappointed when I attend an event at Popejoy.

The play was greatBut the seats are horrendous and the audio/sound tech was terrible at his job. I’m so glad the actors were great and could project ! You have a great sound system use it!!!!!!I won’t come back here again but I will see the play elsewhere.

Amazing! Great Venue! NM Philharmonic is one of our cities treasures! Saw the tribute to Queen, absolutely fantastic! Bring your kids and get them involved in the Arts :)

No refreshments allowed inside auditorium for a nearly 3 hour event? Lines to buy a lemonade over 15 minutes long? Bathroom capacity of a seventh grade theatre? Hoo boy.

Fancy.

My Wife and I hold session and tickets, we enjoyed the performance at the venue very much, Im over 50 and the only thing I dont like is that you cant drink anything, I suffer from chronic dry mouth because of medication, so because of this I have to be sneaky, I feel that they need to change some of the rules because Im quite sure Im not the only person who who suffers from this type of thing, 95% of the people I see in there are people in my age group and we are on medication and are not going to be m making a mess in the auditorium..this is my opinion of course I guess I might be wrong

I love going to shows at Popejoy. Every seat has a decent view of the stage. Nearby parking structure, and easy park and ride if you prefer. Great places to eat within walking distance for before or after your show.

Amazing concert by Bernadette Peters. $20.00 for upper balcony seat for this Broadway icon. A great lifetime experience! Acoustically, line-of-view, and decoratively great, spotlessly clean concert hall. Easy access from free handicapped parking structure. Elevator to lower bathroom floor and to lower balcony, but quite a few stairs to upper balcony seats​. Never disappoints!

This facility leaves much to be desired. They have no conception of how to get the traffic in and out of the facility. You will take your life in your hands trying to drive to, park and then leave to go home. It took up over 1 hour to get into the parking structure from Central in front of the facility!The venue itself is not that good. Seats are not comfortable with little leg room and the sound quality of the performances poor because little thought went into sound control. It reminds me of a high school auditorium. I have seen many performances in plenty of places, this was without a doubt the worse. Add insult to injury with the issues trying to get into the facility and it makes for a lousy evening. I would never go back again, even if the performance was free! If nothing else and if anyone from the venue reads this hire the Albuquerque Police Department for traffic control because you guys dont have a clue!

Best concert, play hall

Our family enjoyed the school time series of A Mid Summers Night Dream.

Outstanding modern venue for concerts and performances. The seating is fairly comfortable. Parking is close by.

We really enjoy the Popejoy Schooltime Series! The prices are very affordable, and the shows are fantastic! Our favorites have been the Bubble Show and the Call of the Wild.

Excellent atmosphere! The volunteers were professional and helpful.

Always a delightful experience. The shuttle is particularly helpful and efficient.

Always have quality entertainment & a great parking setup with shuttle buses. Seating is arranged so views of stage is good. Almost ALWAYS overpriced for the seats that are farther from the stage.....really have to pick your shows carefully if you are on a budget.

I am handicapped and the ushers made sure I was safe and comfortable. Thank you.

Charming, collegiate auditorium. Good acoustics. Inconvenient location surrounded by construction makes for a parking nightmare. Fortunately, the university provides a free shuttle to a remote parking lot. Overall, I enjoyed my experience viewing a concert at this auditorium.

Nice exit when the fire alarm went off! Everyone was calm and it was fairly easy but a little slow. Unfortunately you could not hear the overhead announcement at all and it was even unclear that it was an alarm.

1st time here and was here for field trip with school great plays very interactive.

Finding Neverland was excellent. Enjoyed it to the fullest, the fire alarm that emptied the theater right before the performance not withstanding.

2019 Fishback Dance Studios Recital was great!

Great entertainment; theevent shuttle makes attendance hastle free. Cats was 4/5.

Saw the play Beautiful about Carol King... Juanderful play, even more Juanderful service!!!

We love that Popejoy brings wonderful showes to Albuquerque! They do great events for the kids, too!

LOVE - Popejoy Hall!!! Watched Wicked and was so pleased... Such an AWESOME show...Thank you for a wonderful birthday ~

Cats was wonderful lighting the costumes the singing everything about it was excellent

This is a beautiful campus with flowers, trees, sculptures, statues - even a duck and turtle pond! Pope Joy Hall is great - so many interesting things to see!

Best (and only) theater in NM with the space and resources to support large technical shows

This is a very nice Broadway show theater! Its not huge, which lets the majority of seats have great views, even in the balcony. Ive seen a number of shows here, including Rock of Ages, Taiko Drumming, and most recently Wicked!

Yall need to be more fkn sociable (the students)

Another great show seen, Carole Kings Beautiful!

The staff was really rude tlo everyone in our area. The parking was pathetic. The show was amazing.

The acoustics in the far tippy top way back are sublime. This hall is a true gift to the city.

Great Beach Boys Concert! With Guest Performer John Stamos!

This venue has alot of good performances during the year. Bill Maher this time

Love this place, very comfortable seats and wonderful staff

This place produces wonderful sound. Good location being in the university area but hard to really point out and does not really stand out. But the inside is modern and acoustics sound great. Premier place in Albuquerque to watch performances.

The hall is beautiful and huge. Seats are very comfortable

Very uncomfortable seating. Not conducive to an event lasting more than 45minutes. Would never go back to this venue. This is similar to economy seating on a plane. If someone wants to pass you have to actually stand up, push your seat up and step in to let the person pass.No leg room at all, and most uncomfortable hard seats. We watched Shen Yun which lasted almost 3 hours. It was a very bad experience. Especially considering the high ticket price.If you charge the public premium cost for premium seating tickets, at least invest in some better cushioning for your seats and remove every other row to provide more legroom.Additionally, the seating layout is terrible. If you have someone slightly taller than you in front of you, forget about being able to see anything. In fact, two rows in front of you are obstacles.Again, they have packed seats into every inch to maximize occupancy with no regard for providing a reasonable comfort level to the paying customer.As soon as you walk into the front door, you are welcomed with WARNINGS!!!! Over and over again to power your mobile devices off. I guess they dont want the public to take pictures of the seating layout to show how uncomfortable they really are.Like we would never fly a long trip on economy, we would never visit the Popejoy venue unless hey properly refurbish the place and do something about asking for over $150 per ticket and having you virtually sit on a block of wood with a cold hard concrete floor. Not even an investment for carpeting? Sad!

THE place to see Broadway in the Albuquerque area. Great acoustics and sound. Just go!

Comfortable classic seats, great acoustics and professional friendly staff!

Pretty great hall. Saw pirates of penzance. Super dope

Wonderful venue. Beach Boys concert was a blast.

Great venue! Great productions typically.

The hall is beautiful parking is terrible. Go early the bathrooms are downstairs like 3 flights of stairs. With my broken foot it was very difficult.

Easy to park. Great sound. Comfortable seats. Great eating nearby. Have seen over 100 shows there.

A variety of things for families goes on at Popejoy, dance, theater, piano and many others. They have very good teachers in charge of these programs and that is really good.

Nice theatre. Take some time When selecting your seats. My view was partially blocked.

I have watched a number of shows here. Even with a packed house it people can still move pretty quickly thanks tho the layout of the facility.

Acousticly perfect venue for concerts, opera and ballet.

Just saw Cats at Popejoy. It was amazing!

Venue good, but best seats always unavailable

Le Miserables. Graduation weekend. Parking nightmare. Crowded everywhere. Poor canteen and restroom accomodations. Orchestra seats. No rising,, so couldnt see over the people in front of us. Absolutely atrocious acoustics. Like wearing ear muffs. Never again.

An awesome place for entertainment. The unm string pedogogy is a God send.

Keller Hall was great for a concert. I highly recommend it!

Over all good. The alarm went off twice & we all needed to evacuate. Delayed the event.

Great location and variety if shows. Get there earlier as parking can be difficult. Often it is better to utilize the shuttle system but this gets hectic after the show ends due to rush to load the busses.

The staff at Popejoy is amazing! Thank you for all that you do for the people who attend the performances.

Really, no bad seats just alot of steps or a short ride in a small elevator. Courteous staff, clean restrooms.

The performance was outstanding but the facility was awful. No drinks or snacks are allowed in the theater (which they fail to tell you when you buy them). Seating is very cramped and uncomfortable and the staff are rude.

Awesome venue with great free bus service from the G lot.
